Our story
Simplifying the work.
Expanding the possibilities.
Simplified Clinical began with a practical purpose: make clinical data easier to collect, manage and use, while supporting the people responsible for it. That commitment to simplicity continues to guide how we build software and work with our clients.
For more than 20 years, close collaboration with research teams has shaped our Clinical Discovery Platform. We listen to how organizations work, understand the challenges they face and apply that experience to what comes next.
Today, that same approach connects data collection, management, analytics and AI. As CDP evolves, our focus remains on making sophisticated capabilities useful within your organization’s processes, responsibilities and technology environment.

Technology that fits
The system and the EDCs they develop are the easiest and most intuitive I have ever used […] it is kept simple and straight forward, but at the same time includes the rigorous, regulatory compliance audit trails, etc. needed.
You get what you need, designed for you/with you without having to have lots of extras [that could] overcomplicate things that are not relevant to your clinical study.
